Supreme Lord of Towers

Time flies!

In the blink of an eye, twenty days have passed.

There are only two days left before the entrance to the Ancient Ruins closes.

So, Ye Chen had to stop his cultivation.

"My cultivation has reached the Ninth Layer of the Divine Mansion Realm, just one step away from reaching its peak. It seems I really need to enter that Ancient Ruins to break through." Ye Chen murmured to himself, a hint of regret flashing in his eyes.

During these twenty days, he mostly focused his time on refining Peiyuan Pills.

As for the Golden Flood Dragon Technique, he hadn't started cultivating it yet.

After all, the Golden Flood Dragon Technique is much harder to cultivate than the Red Flood Dragon Technique. Even with Ye Chen's Body Refining Talent, it's difficult to master it thoroughly in a short time.

So, Ye Chen also planned to find time to cultivate this Body Refining Technique after entering the Ancient Ruins.

"It's time to set off." With a thought, Ye Chen got up and left the Cultivation Chamber.

Soon, he called his adoptive father and mother, along with Ouyang Xue and Ye Hao, to the great hall to say goodbye to them one by one.

"Chen'er, you must come back safely." Xiao Hui said, her eyes red, reluctantly giving instructions to Ye Chen.

"Chen'er, don't worry, I will take good care of your adoptive mother." Ye Ming said.

"Ye Chen, I'll wait for your return." Ouyang Xue and Ye Hao also had deep reluctance in their eyes.

This parting, they didn't know when they would reunite with Ye Chen again.

"Don't worry, I'll be fine. You all take care." Ye Chen took a deep look at everyone before his figure flashed, swiftly heading towards Venerable Zi Chen's residence.

In fact, he was also very reluctant to leave everyone.

If it were possible, he would naturally want to always be by his family and friends' side.

However, reason told him he must explore the Ancient Ruins.

This is a chance to quickly enhance his strength; if he misses it, it will be hard to encounter again.

And only with enough power can he protect his family and friends.

"Master Ye Chen, you're here." Shortly after, Ye Chen arrived at Venerable Zi Chen's residence, who enthusiastically greeted him.

"Master Ye Chen, have you really decided to explore the Ancient Ruins?" Beside Venerable Zi Chen, a black-robed elder said solemnly.

This black-robed elder was none other than Venerable Profound Spirit.

It was Venerable Zi Chen who informed him of Ye Chen's desire to explore the Ancient Ruins.

After hearing this, he also began to worry about Ye Chen's safety.

"Yes, Senior Profound Spirit, my mind is made up, you don't need to persuade me anymore! Rest assured, I will definitely make it out of the Ancient Ruins alive." Ye Chen said with a slight smile, his brows exuding strong confidence.

"Since that's the case, Master Ye Chen, you must be very careful. I have a Treasure here; let me give it to Master Ye Chen for protection." At this moment, from Venerable Profound Spirit's sleeve, a set of Purple Gold Battle Swords suddenly flew out.

These Battle Swords, numbering twenty-four, emitted extremely sharp auras, as if they could cut through everything in heaven and earth.

"It's a Treasure!" Ye Chen was greatly surprised.

You should know, a Treasure is a level higher than a Magical Artifact, extremely valuable.

Even many Profound Pill Realms don't possess a single Treasure.

But now, Venerable Profound Spirit had taken out twenty-four Treasure-level Battle Swords to give to him.

This shows how much he values Ye Chen.

"Master Ye Chen, although this set of Battle Swords is only Middle Grade Treasure, if pushed to the limit, its power can rival an Upper Grade Treasure! The reason I didn't give you a more powerful Treasure is that Middle Grade Treasures are most suitable for Profound Pill Realms to use!" Venerable Profound Spirit said with a slight smile.

Treasures, like Magical Artifacts, are divided into Lower Grade, Middle Grade, Upper Grade, and Top Grade.

However, due to cultivation limitations, Profound Pill Realms can only fully leverage the power of Middle Grade Treasures.

As for Upper Grade Treasures and Top Grade Treasures, even if they really acquired them, they could only use a small portion of their power.

So, Venerable Profound Spirit planned to give this set of Battle Swords to Ye Chen.

In fact, with his wealth, even Top Grade Treasures could be produced.

But it would really be meaningless.

"Thank you, Senior Profound Spirit." A touch of gratitude flashed through Ye Chen's eyes.

Right now, his most powerful weapons were the Golden Autumn Sword and the Demon-Slaying Thunder Shuttle.

But they were just Top Grade Magical Artifacts, incomparable to the set of Battle Swords given by Venerable Profound Spirit.

With this set of Battle Swords, Ye Chen's combat power would surely improve significantly.

"Master Ye Chen, this set of Battle Swords also conceals an Array. Once activated, it can possess extremely strong Defense Power, hopefully aiding you in the future." Venerable Profound Spirit said.

This was another reason he gave this set of Battle Swords to Ye Chen, hoping it could save his life at critical moments.

After all, Ye Chen is one of the few in this world who can cure the Netherworld Demon Poison in his master's body.

If, by chance, he fell, his master's Netherworld Demon Poison might never be eradicated.

Venerable Profound Spirit did this for his master.

"Master Ye Chen, in two days, the entrance to the Ancient Ruins will close, let me and Senior Profound Spirit escort you there." Venerable Zi Chen said.

"Peak Master, let Senior Profound Spirit take me; I hope you stay at Overlord Body Peak to ensure my adoptive father and mother's safety." Ye Chen said.

This time, his greatest worries in exploring the Ancient Ruins were indeed his family and friends.

If Venerable Zi Chen guarded Overlord Body Peak, personally protecting them, Ye Chen would have no worries.

"Alright, rest assured Master Ye Chen, I won't let anyone harm your family." Venerable Zi Chen said with utmost seriousness.

"Thank you, Peak Master. Senior Profound Spirit, let's set off." After Ye Chen finished speaking, he led Venerable Profound Spirit, swiftly flying towards the Transmission Palace of the Azure Sky Immortal Sect.

The Ancient Ruins were located in the Fire Province of the Southern Heaven Domain, extremely far from Cang Province.

If it weren't for the Transmission Array, with Ye Chen's speed, it might take a month of flying to reach there.

Swoosh!

Soon, Ye Chen and Profound Spirit arrived at the Transmission Palace of the Azure Sky Immortal Sect.

When everyone saw Ye Chen, their eyes were filled with great dread.

They weren't dreading Ye Chen but rather the awe-inspiring presence of Venerable Profound Spirit by his side.

After all, this terrifying being was someone even the Peak Master of Azure Sky had to show deference to, let alone anyone else.
